Forensic-grade integrity verification, dual-hash confirmation, and tamper-evident audit logging — starting free, with Pro at $249/year.
Most backup software copies files and calls it done. No verification. No anomaly detection. No warning when your destination drive is failing. You discover the problem the day you need your data back — and by then it’s too late.
Backup tools report success even when destination files are unreadable. Without hash verification, you’re trusting the file system’s word that your data is intact. A single bad sector turns a “successful” backup into a liability.
S.M.A.R.T. data predicts drive failure weeks in advance, but no consumer backup tool reads it. Your backup destination is degrading right now and nothing is telling you.
Traditional backup tools can’t distinguish between legitimate file changes and a ransomware attack encrypting your data. They faithfully back up the encrypted versions, destroying your last clean copy.
Macrium killed its perpetual license. Acronis charges $85/year. EaseUS wants $60/year. You’re paying rent to protect your own data on your own hardware. Every year. Forever.
Independent research from Harris Poll, Gartner, IBM, and ISACA paints a clear picture: most backup strategies fail when they matter most.

GlacierLock was built by a forensic examiner who got tired of backup tools that couldn’t answer a simple question: “Is my data actually safe?”
GlacierLock computes SHA-256 and MD5 hashes for every file it copies, then verifies the destination matches the source. Not a spot check. Not a sample. Every single file, every single run. If a byte is wrong, you know immediately.
GlacierLock runs a pre-backup safety scan that checks for active threats, suspicious I/O patterns, and known ransomware file extensions before writing a single byte. If something looks wrong, the backup pauses and alerts you instead of faithfully copying encrypted garbage.
GlacierLock monitors S.M.A.R.T. attributes on every registered drive, tracks capacity trends over time, and fingerprints drives by serial number. When a drive starts showing signs of failure, you get an alert weeks before it dies — not the day it takes your data with it.
GlacierLock’s AI layer isn’t marketing. Every AI feature degrades gracefully to a rule-based SQL equivalent. The product works without AI. The AI makes it better — not necessary.
Ask your backup system questions in plain English. “Which profile hasn’t been backed up this week?” “Show me all .pst files larger than 500MB.” “What changed on Drive E since Monday?”
Market uniqueLearns your backup patterns and flags deviations. A job that usually copies 200 files suddenly touching 14,000? That’s either a project dump or a ransomware attack. GlacierLock knows the difference.
Market uniqueBefore every scheduled job, the AI evaluates source health, destination capacity, drive S.M.A.R.T. status, and recent failure patterns. You get a risk score and narrative before a single file moves.
Market uniqueLocal AI inference via llamafile. Phi-4 Mini, Qwen 2.5, or Llama 3.2 running on your hardware. No cloud dependency. No data leaves your machine. Critical for forensic and sensitive-data environments.
Market uniquePrefer cloud AI? Use your own API key for Anthropic Claude, OpenAI GPT-4o, or Google Gemini. Your key, your account, your cost transparency. GlacierLock never touches your API billing.
Market aheadEvery alert, every health warning, every anomaly flag comes with a plain-English explanation. GlacierLock doesn’t just tell you something is wrong — it teaches you what the alert means and what to do about it.
Market uniqueNo AI required. Every AI feature has a rule-based SQL fallback. GlacierLock works perfectly without any AI configured. The intelligence layer is additive, not mandatory. This isn’t hype — it’s honest capability positioning.
GlacierLock exists because its creator is a forensic examiner who looked at consumer backup software and asked a question none of them could answer: “Can you prove this data is intact?” In forensics, everything is evidence. Every file has a hash. Every action has a log. Every claim has documentation behind it. Consumer backup tools don’t think this way — they copy files, report success, and move on. No verification. No audit trail. No proof.
GlacierLock applies forensic discipline to a problem that never had it. The append-only audit log that can’t be silently edited. The dual-hash verification that catches single-bit corruption. The Source Protection Mode that prevents accidental writes to evidence drives. These aren’t features bolted on for marketing. They’re what happens when someone who works with evidence standards builds a backup tool from scratch.
GlacierLock is a product of Elegchos Partners LLC, based in Utah. The name comes from the Greek elegchos — proof, scrutiny, the discipline of testing claims against evidence.
